A young Agua Fria team took steps
towards growing up Friday night as they defeated Shadow Mountain 35-7.Shadow Mountain scored their only TD in
the first quarter on a 57 yard pass play from QB Sam Casel to Mitch Farney. That early TD was the
high point for the Matadors as they spent the remainder of the evening plagued
by turnovers.

Early in the second, with the score
7 to 3 in favor of Shadow Mountain, Big Josh Barajas of Agua Fria has a
D-lineman's dream as he intercepts a screen pass.The Owls stall out and are held to a
field goal making the score 7 to 3 Shadow Mountain.Casel again throws an interception,
this time the Owls Kesiena Otite
makes the pick and on the next play Agua Fria QB Mitch Wolfe hits Nick Martinez for a TD. The PAT was no
good making the score 12- 7Owls.Agua Fria is able to
score one more time on a one yard run by FB Tyler Heagney, Making the score at half
Agua Fria 18 Shadow Mountain 7.

The second half begins much as the
first half ended.Agua Fria LB BrandonWinger intercepts a Casel pass which eventually leads to a
30 yard field goal by Rupert
Alvarezputting Agua Fria ahead
21 to 7.On their next offensive
possession Agua Fria eats the remainder of the 3rd quarter and caps a
long drive with a 15 yard pass from Wolfe to WB Donald Askew. PAT good Agua Fria 28
Shadow Mountain 7.

The 4th quarter
highlight takes place when Wolfe
hits RB Sean Hurley in stride for a
78 yard TD pass.The ensuing PAT
was good putting a cap on the nights scoring for a 35 to 7 Agua Fria
victory.

Bottom Line:Although young, Agua Fria has talent at
the skill positions and experience on defense with versatile leaders John Coker and Kesiena Otite.The Owls two losses are at the hands of
Centennial and Flagstaff.Shadow
Mountain will have a tough time in one of the most competitive 4A regions in the
state if they continue to be careless with the ball.

Game Ball:Agua Fria's Sophomore QB Mitch Wolfe threw 3 TD passes.AsWolfe grows in size and experience look for him to become a player to
watch the next couple of seasons.
